URL: http://natas2.natas.labs.overthewire.org

Info

Description: No description, get inside the level to know.

Theory

Not much to do with the details from the task, so just skipping to doing it.

Solution

We enter to the url with the password from last level:

Is there really nothing in this page? Let's see the View Source with Ctrl+U to see if there's some clue or something that could help us find the password:

Oh, would you look at that. A link that takes us to an image that's just 1x1 pixels. Although, take a look at the link we're directed at, it's the 1x1 pixel image inside a folder. What if we go into that folder instead, basically just removing the `pixel.png` part off the url:

http://natas2.natas.labs.overthewire.org/files/

Yeah, look at that, a different file! If we open this `users.txt` file, we get this:

# username:password
alice:BYNdCesZqW
bob:jw2ueICLvT
charlie:G5vCxkVV3m
natas3:ttQTW9h4DCaw8myewTz0wHnpFGm78DjY
eve:zo4mJWyNj2
mallory:9urtcpzBmH

And that's our password! Now you can exit and go to the next level.
